One of the recent games that crashed on me was NFS: undercover. When I'm about to get into the game, it crashes and gives me the microsoft error if I want to send or not. Before buying this game, I ran a system requirements test and it told me I passed the minimum which I do, it's just my CPU is a little off. My specs are-
AMD Athlon @2400 2.0GHz (game requires 2.8Ghz, and I'm just .4ghz away)
2gb ram
ATI Radeon x1600pro 512mb vram

Some of my other games also have this problem, not just this game.
Can anybody help me? thanks

I scanned this using Belarc advisor. I don't know how to check the listings in my bios for temperature readings, but I don't think I have a overheating problem that's causing my games to crash. Because the game doesn't even go in game, it just crashes upon double clicking the icon. And my other games, I can play just fine.
